A transmigrated genius woman defies fate and stirs the tides of history with her pen!
Modern-day genius Bian Zhao transmigrates into the Eastern Han dynasty on the eve of Ban Zhao's wedding! From the start, she refuses the marriage and jumps into a pond, but becomes famous after saving her husband, Cao Shishu, when he suffers acute appendicitis. Armed with modern knowledge and foresight into history, she performs a C-section to save her sister-in-law with one hand, and makes “Pear Blossom White” liquor a sensation in Luoyang with the other. She even helps the Ban family escape a dead end in their historical writing!
She joins her brother Ban Chao on an expedition to the Western Regions, improves military rations, and outsmarts the Xiongnu during a plague. She forms a mutual admiration with the Prince of Kucha, but the powerful official Dou Xian relentlessly pursues her. Back at court, she continues the Book of Han and revolutionizes papermaking, only to get caught up in a harem conspiracy. Empress Yin resents and frames her, while Deng Sui closes in at every turn. In response, she teaches the consorts lipstick, face masks, and Arabic numerals, turning the Han palace upside down!
From promoting inoculation to stop smallpox to founding a school for girls and challenging the saying that “a hen crowing at dawn brings ruin,” Ban Zhao uses medicine to break through constraints and history to fight for women's rights. But the conservatives burn her manuscripts, Confucians and Daoists attack her for “frivolous techniques,” and even her beloved Deng Zhi is left on the brink of death...
Watch how this transmigrated genius uses a scalpel in one hand to save the people and a brush in the other to record history, writing her own legend amid the chaos of the Eastern Han!
